On Wednesday, the Lions traveled to San Jose for a midweek match that marked their second of three games played in a nine-day period. The brutal schedule called for rotation and changes to the line-up, which provided opportunities for some unknown players to make names for themselves.
Victor “PC” Giro and Léonardo Pereira did just that when they hit the West Coast.
Neither of them had quiet MLS debuts. They both had a noticeable impact on the match-- PC even made it to the scoring sheet by assisting Carlos Rivas on the lone goal of for the Lions.
